The increasing demand for durable wood flooring is notably driving the glue-laminated timber market growth, although factors such as the availability of numerous substitute products may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the glue-laminated timber market industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Glue-laminated Timber Market Driver
Increasing demand for durable wood flooring is a major driver fueling the glue-laminated timber market growth. With developments in aesthetics, quality, and selections of wood and finishes, glue-laminated timber has become an attractive option for durable flooring. Plastic composites are also being used for decking. Although plastic composites are cheaper, their production process involves the emission of hazardous compounds. Further, these composites are not fire and heat-resistant, limiting their wide acceptance. On the contrary, glue-laminated timber is made using softwood and hardwood products procured from wood processing industries. Therefore, these timber products are eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives to conventional flooring in most applications. In addition to its natural wood-like and enhanced properties, glue-laminated timber has a longer life cycle and greater load-carrying capacity than other wood products (solid wood) of the same measurement. In the manufacturing of glue-laminated timber, special resins are used that comply with stringent regulatory stands set by various government organizations for safety and efficacy. This is attributable to the fact that glue-laminated timber products are more uniform and predictable in terms of mechanical properties as defects in the wood are minimized during the manufacturing process.
Key Glue-laminated Timber Market Trend
The increasing adoption of wooden furniture is a major trend influencing the glue-laminated timber market growth. The increasing adoption of wood-based furniture is likely to support the global glue laminated timber market's growth in the future. Home and office furnishings such as wooden furniture are characterized by enhanced durability and long replacement cycles. The home furniture is often considered a one-time investment, especially by the middle-income and low-income segments of the population. Glulam is commonly used in the manufacturing of furniture such as benches and tables, among others. The emergence of bamboo-reinforced glue-laminated timber-based furniture is likely to support the market's growth going forward. Wooden furniture is widely used in home and office spaces for decoration and aesthetics. Branded and premium wooden furniture is made of superior quality raw materials. Investments in such furniture are considered permanent, with consumers required to incur nominal maintenance costs. Premium products available in the market are characterized by enhanced durability and convenience of use. Demand for branded wooden furniture and home furnishing equipment has increased due to rising consumer awareness and brand consciousness. This will likely create a positive influence on the growing use of wooden furniture during the forecast period.
Key Glue-laminated Timber Market Challenge
The availability of numerous substitute products is a major hindrance to the glue-laminated timber market growth. Consumers and end-users are shifting from glue-laminated timber products to more cost-effective, competitive products. Plywood, laminated veneer lumber, oriented strand board, cross-laminated timber, iron, steel, aluminum, etc. are some of the key substitutes widely preferred by end-users. The high relative performance of these alternatives and their easy availability in the market significantly affect the growth of the global glue-laminated timber market. Steel and iron products are largely used in construction beam and framework applications. Greater load-carrying capacity, reliability, enhanced safety, longer service life, easy assembling and disassembling, and lower maintenance requirements are some of the key advantages of metal (iron and steel) beams and framework products over glue-laminated timber. Easy availability of such substitute products and their cost-effectiveness increase competition among furniture products. Therefore, the easy availability and increasing adoption of alternative products are expected to stump the glue-laminated timber market's growth over the forecast period.
